The Importance of Routine Maintenance in Springfield, VA

The Importance of Routine Maintenance in Springfield, VA

If you haven’t been regularly scheduling service appointments for your vehicle, then now is the time to get started. Our knowledgeable staff here at Sheehy Subaru Springfield have some important points that you’ll want to read if you’re looking to better understand the importance of routine maintenance. Of course, if you still have further questions after, don’t hesitate to give us a call.

Routine Maintenance

Whether you drive a vehicle that has accumulated thousands of miles on its odometer or something that just left the manufacturer factory yesterday, there’s a level of consistency you should strive to maintain when it comes to maintenance. More often than not, you’ll find that staying consistent with service appointments will also better prevent major issues from arising. Getting a routine tire rotation helps limit uneven tread wear, which often leads to poor handling. Similarly, having an oil change done regularly will keep the liquid from getting old and corroded to the point of no longer being able to keep your car’s powertrain cool and lubricated. Ultimately, the better your service timeline is, the more drives you can take down Old Keene Mill Road to reach Springfield Golf and Country Club without issues.

Benefits

By sticking to a routine maintenance schedule, you’ll be putting yourself in a better position to save on the overall amount you spend on your vehicle’s health. While getting service work done every few months for the same components will certainly add up overtime, it’s not nearly as bad as having something like an engine overheat and needing to replace it entirely. Replacing components is typically always more expensive than repairing them, which is why you should strive to avoid the former until it’s absolutely necessary in most cases. And of course, a vehicle that’s properly cared for will also perform better during your drives around the Springfield area. So, visit our Service Department when you're ready to get started!

Express Service

For maintenance that involves oil changes, tire rotations, multi-point inspections, and other work that’s less intensive, you can take advantage of our Subaru express service. The beauty of this option is that you don’t need to schedule an appointment in advance with our staff. Instead, simply ride over to our location after you’ve had your fill of fun at Franconia Park, and we’ll be happy to tend to your vehicle. Be sure to contact us during our hours of operation to chat about what type of service timeline will suit your car best!

Shabir was by far the best sales person I’ve worked with. He made certain everything was perfect from the initial sales, to financing (AJ was great as well) and for the first service of the vehicle. Service Dept did an excellent job as well. Overall, the best car buying experience! Thank you Shabir!

Great staff, prices, and facility… will definitely be back.

Absolute great experience buying a new car from Chris LaPorte of Sheehy Subaru. He respected my time and wasn't pushy. Internet car dealers might be nice for shopping from home, but nothing beats having someone you can reach out to with a text message and getting a live person to respond. Chris was there with answers and helped me choose the right options for me. When it came time to take delivery, Chris came and picked me up at my house! Who else will do that for you? If you are looking for outstanding value in a new car and exceptional service, call my boy Chris LaPorte and check out the new Subarus. It's worth it!

5 Stars!

Sheehy Subaru of Springfield is the only place we would ever purchase a Subaru. And we have purchased or leased six different Subarus from Sheehy. Every experience with this dealership, from sales to service, has been positive. Our most recent purchase occurred at the beginning of December. We purchased a 2023 Outback, Wilderness Edition. Our sales associate, Shabir Baba, assisted us in ordering our car, kept us updated on its status, and guided us through the final delivery and purchase. If you are considering purchasing a Subaru call Sheehy and ask for Shabir, you will not regret it.

I liked my experience buying my new Impreza at this location with Jay. Not sure if it was because I didn’t go by myself and came with someone, but my experience felt good. When I drove off the lot I didnt have the feeling of regret or remorse. I didn’t have “oh god, what have I done.” The car was worth the money and I got a beautiful apple/cranberry color. Thank you Jay!

Shabir was amazing. He is very patient, knowledgeable and a pleasure to work with. This was my best car buying experience ever! I purchased a brand new Crosstrek and I love it. The General Manager Chris was superb as well. He honored our discount from the Subaru corporate office and was very professional and accommodating. AJ, the Finance Manager, was great, too. Nobody was pushy or put any pressure on me. They were just professional, informative and did what they could to make me happy and comfortable with my purchase. I highly recommend the Sheehy Springfield Subaru team.
